Because if you're not celebrating Festivus, can you really be worthy of a 'bic ?
Happy Festivus everyone !
Of course, you know the rules.
I'll start off:
Airing of Grievances
Honestly, I don't have any. At least not any that I can sincerely authenticate. This year, I managed to come up with 2 vintage Sunn heads (pre-'71, thank you very much) + 2 matching vintage Sunn cabinets + 2 additional Sunn rackmount stereo heads from the later Hartzell era, + an F1X, + an SF-2, plus a beautiful '92 Europa and an even beautifuller '18 SC retro deluxe (both courtesy of my friend J9, to whom I am mucho indebted) and finally both Bill and Steve from the board here immediately sent me manuals for the SF2.
Full disclosure: if I actually did air a real grievance, it would have to be that I haven't met any of you in person...yet. With a year like this, if I complained about anything else, I think I'd get struck by a bolt of lightning. Thus this will be my grievance for next year again unless this unacceptable situation is properly assuaged.
Feats of Strength
Did I mention that they were "vintage" Sunns ?
The Festivus Meal
I don't really cook much, but if someone could come up with a meatloaf real quick (no pork, please) it would be a Festivus Miracle.
If Frank was here, he would remind you that Festivus is part of your heritage and you must fulfill your obligations (gee, where have I heard that before ?) Sure...great...just try finding an aluminum pole (known for its high strength/weight ratio) at this time of year. But otherwise my Festivus is now complete.
OK folks, you're up. How was your year ?
